Torop after the Royal Army saga: We knew the difficulty of the match… and a draw was an acceptable result
Yes Torop, the coach of the first football team at Al-Ahly Club, expressed his relative satisfaction with the draw against the Royal Moroccan Army team, stressing that the confrontation was exactly as he expected in terms of strength and public pressure.
Torop said in his statements after the match: I mentioned before that the match would be difficult, and we were fully aware of the scale of the challenge here in Rabat.. The two teams could have achieved victory; The opponent had chances, and we also had clear chances, and in the end the match ended in a draw.
He added: It did not occur to us that a penalty kick would be awarded against us, because it did not exist in the first place. Also, there was an early entry of some players into the penalty area, and this is a clear mistake.. The lack of the “mouse” technique. It’s something I talked about before, and it’s a very touching thing. I don’t want to talk about arbitration, but there were two clear mistakes that cost the team a lot.
Torop said: The performance was much better in the second half, and we were close to winning despite the difficult atmosphere. The competitor may achieve great results at home due to the tremendous support of his fans. The stadium was wonderful, and the atmosphere was great, but I did not like throwing bottles inside the stadium. These things spoil a wonderful scene, and they should not happen.
